Looks like the same size as a 7.2 v nimh battery for RC cars, is this correct? Also do you know if this can be used in an rc car instead of nimh?

This is an rc car battery when I'm not using it for airsoft I'm using it in a chess Wal-Mart car

The size may be smaller . But for the size it packs a big punch I use two in my traxxas 1/16 e-revo

It is slightly smaller. Smaller size usually never an issue. Yes you can technically use it for rc car and lipo are better because they last longer. The only thing you want to look for is the connector. The connector for airsoft and rc car are opposite.

I'm not sure about size My battery measure's (9cmx3.3cmx2.7cm) or (3.5"x1 3/8"x5/8"). The power output is better than the NiMH. I replace my 6.2volt NiMH with the 7.4 LiPo on my Airsoft gun and it cycles faster with higher velocity rounds. It has not harmed my motors as the math works out for the conversion.

I believe it would work. Although the last helicopter I had, used a 15c battery and this is 20c. The safest bet is to use a battery that is the same "C" or current rating as the factory/stock battery unless you are into modding of RC equipment. The difference between the stock battery and this would be more power and more flight time because of the higher capacity. Hope this helps!

Hello James, We can't speak for other sellers of this product, but if you purchase from Battery Supersite, we ship the higher capacity version of this battery which has the same 12v output as the 12v 4.0ah, but is rated at a higher capacity. The capacity is listed as the "ah" rating, or amp hour rating. The amp hour rating is simply just the capacity of the battery and how much reserve power it can store. It's like the gas tank in a car; the larger the gas tank, the longer it can run. We always search the market for high quality batteries that will have a higher capacity but keep the output the same. The important thing to check is the voltage as the voltage should always be the same (ie. a 12v cannot be used where a 6 volt was used). A good example of this is the 4ah and 4.5ah battery. Nearly every battery manufacturer has updated this size battery to the 5 amp hour battery which will provide up to 20% longer runtime than the previous capacity battery. Feel free to contact us with any questions. Battery Supersite "The Amazon Battery Experts"

J. Skelly, this battery is is the same dimension as the standard battery with the exception only of depth. It is thinker by a factor of almost 2.

I have looked on my charger and it doesn't show anything about that type of battery only ni-mh.i would just email the company.ive sent them questions before and they replied fairly quickly.hope this helps and I've had this charger for over a year and no problems so far

Not sure on the NiMH or NiCAD with this particular battery, however; I would suggest ordering the original Bosch Blue Core 18v 2.4ah. The life on the after market batteries is poor

I just looked at my battery and it says: 2.4v 500mAh NI-MHBatteryplus.com sells them if you have one local, expensive though. Radioshack should sell them. However, you can check with Amazon in their search area using "2.4v 500mAh NI-MH". Make sure you check the reviews on them.

Well, I use it on my small quadcopters but I do not have an RC Boat. It should work if the boat only requires a 1S battery. What batteries do you use on your boat already? From there, you can tell how much MAH you need. This battery has 500 MAh. Also, 15c might be enough, but it depends in what boat you are using. These batteries can be drained in 10 minutes with no problems, but the amp draw of your boat will probably be less than my Qquadcopter. I do not really know.

Hello, I'm running my lunch boxes on 7.2V 5000mAh NiMH batteries just fine. They last a lot longer than back in the day. On your 2nd question Did you mean Lipo batteries or a brushless engine?

No idea. I ..tried looking to see what your battery looks like but had no success...My batteries went into rc tanks..sorry

It has a 1000 mah nimh battery. Runs for 15 minutes and starts to slow down. It takes 5 hours to charge the battery. I've used this Rc car now for 5 months every day (one charge per day) and it still runs like new.

Yes you can use NiMH AA and AAA rechargeable batteries. Based on our experience with this car, I recommend rechargeable batteries, particularly for the car's 6 AA batteries. Otherwise you'll be buying lots of throw away batteries. Along with the car, we bought the Energizer CHP4W8-4 Smart Recharge AA/AAA Charger with 8AA and 4AAA NiMH Batteries, also from Amazon, and those work well with this car. If you get that, along with 4 additional NiMH AA batteries, you can be charging 6 AA's while you're using the other 6 in the car. The controller batteries last much longer because they're not running motors.

It looks like your model requires a special battery pack. The NiMH batteries look like ordinary triple A's.

You need to make sure the batteries have the same form factor. The one that came with my radio is cylindrical, roughly 5/8" in diameter and 2 11/16" long. From your description of the proposed battery change the voltage is fine and additional charge is also fine. But with more charge capacity usually comes higher physical volume so look out for a different (bigger) form factor. Incidentally, why do you want to upgrade the battery? The radio will run with the existing battery on one charge for a lonnnnng, long time. Hector

I'll agree with the consensus.I cannot confirm or deny compatibility with the very old NiCd batteries, and in fact do not recommend it, but I can confirm by experience that NiMH - both "standard" and "long shelf life/pre-charged" - and the iGo batteries both work in this charger.

This is a motorcycle battery. However I am sure they make a size that would fit your car application.

I used the 8 AA cell holder. When I tried rechargeable NiMH cells the motor seemed a bit slow, but all other functions seemed OK. I'd recommend the powerpole option, along with putting a 6-cell and 4-cell AA pack together in series to get to 12.5V, though this will require some soldering and trips to Radio Shack or an online electronics outlet like Jameco or Goldmine electronics.
